The involvement in the spine of eosinophilic granuloma is not common. Especially, involvement of cervical spine and posterior neural arch is quite rare. In addition, radiographic findings including magnetic resonance images of eosinophilic granuloma are manifested as vertebral body collapse, loss of pedicle and paravertebral soft mass formation; it must be differentiated with other conditions, such as malignant bone tumor, metastatic cancer or tuberculous spondylitis. We experienced three cases of eosinophilic granuloma involving posterior neural arch of C4, C7, and body of C4 respectively, which were performed surgical treatment and achieved complete healing. We report these cases with review of literatures.

Purpose: To analyze clinical, radiological and pathological features as well as clinical outcome after surgical treatment of patients with secondary chondrosarcoma arising from osteochondroma(tosis). Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed clinical records, radiographs, pathologic slides of 14 patients. Nine patients were male and fi ve were female. The mean age was 34 years. The mean follow-up period was 54 months. Results: All patients had a history of previous mass since childhood or puberty. Preexisted osteochondroma was single in 3 patients and multiple in 10. Remaining 1 patient had multiple osteochondromatosis with enchondromatosis. MRI clearly provided thickness of cartilage cap, which was over 2 cm except in 2 cases. Chondrosarcoma was grade 1 in all except 1 case, which was grade 2. Wide excision was performed in 10 patients, marginal excision in 3 and amputation in 1. Twelve patients were doing very well without evidence of disease. Among 3 patients with marginal excision, 1 patient had local recurrence and 1 patient died of disease. Conclusion: Comprehensive understanding of clinical, radiological and pathological features of secondary chondro sarcoma is warranted for accurate diagnosis. The best result can be expected with early recognition of malignant change of osteohcondroma(tosis) and wide excision.

Purpose: We describe clinical, radiographic, MRI and pathologic findings as well as final outcome after simple curettage and bone graft of cystic fibrous dysplasia (FD) in the long bone, which has been rarely documented in the literature. Materials and Methods: Clinical records, radiographs, MRI and histologic slides of 11 patients with cystic FD in the long bone were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Six patients complained pain for several months, 4 patients presented pain after trivial injury event, and 1 patient suffered pathologic fracture. The mode of involvement was monostotic in 10 patients and polyostotic in l patient. The femur was affected in 7 patients, the humerus in 3, and the radius in 1. Radiography showed prominent, expansive lysis associated with ground-glass density of FD. MRI revealed 2 different signals of FD and cyst. Microscopic examination revealed classic findings of FD and non-specific cystic degeneration. The final outcome was satisfactory in every patient. Local recurrence was not observed. Conclusion: Cystic FD in the long bone seems not as rare as the scarcity of reported cases would indicate. MRI features provide a basis for differential diagnosis between benign cystic change and malignant transformation. Cystic FD would be an indication for surgery and simple curettage with allo-chip-bone graft is effective.

Object : The aim of the current study is to assess the results of segmental resection and replantation for primary malignant or aggressive tumors of the upper limb. Materials and Methods : From 1986 to 1994, ten patients who had primary malignant or aggressive tumors of the upper limb were managed with segmental resection and replantation method. The average duration of follow-up was 7 years and 7 months. Primary indication of this method is stage II B tumors which, because of their extend, could otherwise be adequately treated only by amputation. Three patients had chondrosarcoma, two had osteosarcoma, two had giant cell tumors with pathologic fracture, one had extensive chondroblastoma, one had Ewings sarcoma, and one had leiomyosarcoma. The location of the tumor was humerus in 6 patients, scapula in 3 patients, and soft tissue of forearm in 1 patient. Wide resection margins were achieved in 7 patients and marginal margin in three. Results : One patient died on 40 months after surgery due to systemic metastasis. Nine patients have remained disease free without local recurrence or metastasis. The average overall functional rating was 65% (43~90%) for ten patients on the last follow-up by the functional rating system of Enneking. The mean grasping power and pinching power of operative hand was 75%(28~95%) and 65%(43~90%) of the opposite hand, respectively. Complications associated with this surgical method included three wound dehiscences and one nerve injury that resolved with proper wound care and time. Conclusion : It was concluded that segmental resection and replantation might be used for partial limb salvage in selected cases for the treatment of primary malignant or aggressive tumors of the upper limb.

Purpose: Delay in the diagnosis of the primary malignant bone tumors may critically influence the chance of the patients' survival and the limb sparing, but the primary malignant bone tumors are so rare that most doctors have little experience in these challenging diseases. The purpose of the current study is to examine the initial symptoms of osteosarcoma and chondrosarcoma, and to shorten the delay of diagnosis. Materials and Methods: The data was based on the questionnaires and the medical records from 139 patients whose histological diagnoses were confirmed in the authors' institution. There were 108 patients of osteosarcoma and 31 patients of chondrosarcoma. Eighty-six were male and fifty-three were female. The mean age of the patients was 20.2 years in osteosarcoma, and 42.4 years in chondrosarcoma. Results: The most common symptom that the patient consult the doctor was pain (93.5% of osteosarcoma patients and 61.3% of chondrosarcoma patients). Among them, 76.2% of osteosarcoma and 57.8% of chondrosarcoma patients complained the night pain. The history of trauma was evident in 48.5% of osteosarcoma patients and one patient of chondrosarcoma. At the first medical visit, the malignant bone tumor was suspected in 61.1% of osteosarcoma and 64.5% of chondrosarcoma patients. Fracture was the most common misdiagnosis in osteosarcoma (16.7%), and the osteomyelitis in chondrosarcoma (19.4%). Initial radiographic examination and the adult age were shown to increase the rate of correct diagnosis of both diseases (p<0.05). Patient's delay and doctor's delay were significantly longer in chondrosarcoma patients than in osteosarcoma. Initial radiography led to shorten the doctor's delay, and the axial location of the tumor lengthened the doctor's delay. Trauma and the young age were believed to shorten the patient's delay. Conclusion: Careful history taking, including the night pain and trauma, would be mandatory for the early diagnosis of the primary malignant bone tumors, and the initial radiographic examination and periodic follow-up can increase the rate of correct diagnosis.

Purpose: Interferon-${\alpha}2b$ using immunotherapy of malignant melanoma is known to increase the microscopic enemies that remain after surgical resection of the tumor to prevent recurrence, disease-free survival and overall survival. Authors in patients with malignant melanoma after surgical resection and high-dose interferon-${\alpha}$ immunotherapy treated group of disease-free survival and overall survival compared with the results of the treatment of immune therapy to a preliminary report. Materials and Methods: From February 2010 to October 2012 at our institution between being diagnosed with malignant melanoma after surgical immunotherapy treated patients were analyzed. Patients was evaluated using the stage AJCC stage IIA 3 cases, IIB 1 cases, IV 1 were as follows. Follow-up period of at least 7 months, and a maximum of 32 months. As maintenance therapy after the first induction therapy group underwent immunotherapy interferon-${\alpha}$ of body-surface area per 200,000 IU five times in a week for 4 weeks sedentary and body surface area a total of 48 weeks per week to 100,000 IU three times subcutaneously. These patients for local recurrence and metastases, and distant metastasis were investigated disease-free survival was investigated. Results: Interferon-evaluation through follow-up chest computed tomography (CT) and positron emission computed tomography (PET CT) in patients who underwent the ${\alpha}$ immunotherapy results above both local recurrence and metastases without evidence of distant metastases. Conclusion: The high-dose ${\alpha}2b$ immunotherapy performed in patients to prevent the local recurrence of the tumor and metastasis to the current or future ultimate survival and disease-free survival improvement achieved is additional study and follow-up will be needed.

Purpose: We report the diagnosis, treatment outcomes and prognosis of the patients with soft tissue malignant myoepithelioma in the extremities. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 6 patients with soft tissue malignant myoepithelioma in the extremities who were treated at our institution between 2008 and 2014. Two patients received unplanned excision at another hospital and remaining 4 patients underwent the biopsy procedures and received wide excision at our hospital. Results: There were 3 men and 3 women with mean age of 41 (33-54) years. The average follow up was 28 (9-45) months. Among the 6 patients, only 4 patients underwent biopsy procedures under the impression of malignant soft tissue sarcoma. Surgical margins for these 4 patients were negative. Two patients who had unplanned excision received another re-excision and one of them showed no residual tumor in the resected specimen. Local recurrences were developed in all patients and distant metastasis in 4 patients. All 4 patients who developed distant metastasis died due to disease progression. Among the 2 patients who developed local recurrence only, one patient has another local recurrence after re-operation and remaining one patient is no evidence of disease for 2 years after resection of locally recurred mass. Conclusion: Soft tissue malignant myoepithelioma in the extremities is a rare disease and shows an aggressive behavior. Appropriate biopsy under the impression of soft tissue malignancy is necessary and complete surgical resection with wide margins is the recommended treatment of choice.

Purpose : The purpose of the current study is to evaluate the functional and oncologic results of the limb salvage surgery with intramedullary nailing and cementization in malignant bone tumors of the proximal humerus. Materials and Methods : We reviewed 18 cases of limb salvage surgery of resection and reconstruction with an intramedullary nail and cement-molded humeral head for the malignant bone tumors of the proximal humerus, which performed between August, 1992 through the April, 1998. The diagnoses included the osteosarcoma in 7 patients, chondrosarcoma in 3, the recurrent giant cell tumor in 3, metastatic tumor in 3, multiple myeloma in one patient and the one patient with malignant fibrous histiocytoma. The mean age at the time of surgery was 38 years(range, 15-73 years). The mean follow-up period was 26 months(range, 6-67 months). Results : Average functional score by ISOLS evaluation system was 21.1(70.3%). There were 3 local recurrences and 5 distant metastases. There were one case of shoulder instability and one case of deep infection. The seven patients are continuously disease free state and seven patients are alive with disease. Four patients died from the disease. Conclusion : The limb salvage surgery with intramedullary nailing and cementization in the bone tumors of the proximal humerus may be considered an option for the malignant bone tumors of the proximal humerus in selected patients.

Osteosarcoma in patients older than 40 years are rare, however they have different clinical, radiological and pathological features from those of younger patients. Sometimes accurate histologic diagnosis is not easy, which is important in determining the correct surgical treatment and appropriate chemotherapy. Since January 1995, 11 patients with osteosarcoma occurring in patients older than 40 years have been diagnosed, treated and followed up for more than 6 months. In contrast to osteosarcoma in children and adolescents, only 4 cases(36.4%) were conventional types, while the others included 2 malignant fibrous histiocytoma-like types, 2 small cell types, 2 periosteal osteosarcomas and 1 giant cell-rich type. Seven cases showed purely osteolytic or predominantly osteolytic bony lesions and 8 were in Enneking stage IIB. Performed surgical treatments included 2 amputations, 6 wide resections and reconstructions, and one curettage and autogenous bone graft. In the remaining 2 cases, definitive surgical treatments included not carried out because of old age, multifocal involvement or poor medical tolerance. Neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapies were performed in 9 of 11 patients. At last follow-up, there were 6 continuously disease-free survivals, 3 alive with diseases and 2 died of diseases. The overall cumulative 4-year survival rate calculated using Kaplan-Meier's productlimit method was 59.3%. For improved oncologic outcomes and survivals, early and accurate diagnosis, surgical treatment with adequate margin and neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy will be necessary.

Purpose : In patients having malignant and aggressive bone tumors around knee joint requiring amputation, segmental resection and rotationplasty were performed and the clinical results were analyzed. Materials and Methods : Twenty-six patients underwent segmental resection and rotationplasty between February 1988 and June 1994, because limb salvage with tumor prosthesis after removal of tumor was impossible. The mean follow-up of malignant tumors was 57(6~120) months and the average age of patients was 21.4(5~37) years old. Out of 26 patients, there were 18 osteosarcoma(${\geq}$stage IIB), 2 synovial sarcoma, and 6 giant cell tumor. Results : Clinical results were evaluated by the Shriner's rating system. Four patients were excluded due to death or amputation and remaining 22 patients were included for assessment. Eighteen patients had excellent result, 3 good, and 1 fair. Range of motion of ankle joint was -11(dorsiflexion)~80(plantarflexion) degrees and daily walking activity with prosthesis was possible. Local recurrence developed in 2 patients and distant metastasis in 10. Early complications had 3 thrombosis and 1 sepsis, and late complications had 6 nonunion, 2 malrotation and 1 stiffness of ankle joint. Conclusion : Rotationplasty which is functionally excellent may serve as an effective partial limb salvage procedure, especially in patients less than 10 years old that lower extremity discrepancy or loosening tumor prosthesis due to enlargement of medullary cavity are anticipated or amputation is inevitable for wide resection margin.
